International Primary Curriculum (IPC)
International Primary Curriculum
The International Primary Curriculum (IPC) is a comprehensive and thematic curricular framework that offers a holistic approach to learning, integrating multiple subjects, encouraging inquiry-based learning and promoting the development of key skills, knowledge and understanding across various disciplines. The International Primary Curriculum is taught to pupils from Little Lochies to Year 2.
As a thematic programme of half-termly units of learning, the IPC allows cross-linkage between subjects such as science, geography, history, art, design technology and health and wellbeing. It also provides a depth of meaningful and exciting experiences, that are based on proven, pedagogical research that ensures challenge and progression. It enhances our diverse community by promoting not only a real-life application to learning but also that all children are celebrated and see a place for themselves in the wider world.
Whilst cross-subject linkage is made, English and mathematics enjoy their own stimulating, in-depth and progressive curricula that ensure a high degree of success at 11+ and 13+ senior school entrance.
